Use Enough Gun

[8mm Enthusiast]

Why not combine the two and use surgical placement of a big bullet?

Diameter, and surgical shot placement with big powerful magnums combined should be the standard for all dangerous game however when it comes to filling a high number of tags, subsistence, management/cull hunts, and deep backcountry hikes, my personal opinion is that in those situations a lighter caliber with less recoil and higher sectional density like the 6.5s make more sense. I am not anti heavy recoil, but sometimes the smaller more precise options are more practical and make for a smoother and more efficient experience in tough conditions where one will be expending a lot of energy navigating rough terrain, packing and processing a lot of heavy meat.
